The Autobots Roll in for Michael Bay’s Transformers 4

I’m not sure if these five Autobots will be the entire roster for Michael Bay’s “Transformers 4″, but if they are, then it will be impressively, well, minimalist of Bay and company. I doubt it, though. Rumors have those dinosaur robots showing up, but that’s just one big ol rumor at this point. I gotta admit, though, after having so many Transformers in the last few movies, maybe streamlining the roster would be a great idea. Of course, great ideas don’t necessarily match up with studio marketing plans, so who knows.

In any case, check out the five Autobots that have been presented to the public so far. Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, of course, are musts. I don’t know who the other three are, though.

As humanity picks up the pieces, following the conclusion of Transformers: Dark of the Moon, Autobots and Decepticons have all but vanished from the face of the planet. However, a group of powerful, ingenious businessman and scientists attempt to learn from past Transformer incursions and push the boundaries of technology beyond what they can control – all while an ancient, powerful Transformer menace sets Earth in his crosshairs. The epic adventure and battle between good and evil, freedom and enslavement ensues.
